[[Image:ArquitorSpicula.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[Arquitor Bombard]] with {{PAGENAME}}{{Fn|1}}]]
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a kind of rocket artillery system sometimes mounted on the [[Space Marine]] [[Arquitor Bombard]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]]. The system consisted of a rack of unguided missiles, fired in rippling salvos at enemy units. It was perfect for taking out massed ranks of infantry and lighter vehicles or building.{{Fn|1}}
==Trivia==
Visually, the Spicula Rocket System resembles the British WW2-era Hedgehog anti-submarine mortar.
